©1999 By Candy Hillenbrand

EDITORS' NOTE: In the September, 1999, issue of Vibration, we presented Australian astrologer, essence practitioner, and magazine publisher, Candy Hillenbrand's recommendations of remedies for the zodiac signs Libra through Pisces. This is a continuation, and for your convenience, there will be a link at the end of the article so you can complete this spin through the zodiac.

ARIES - MARS - 1ST HOUSE
The Principle of Initiation ~ The Pioneering Self  

FLOWER REMEDIES: Impatiens, Heather, Vine, Blackberry, Tansy, Sunflower, Wild Oat, Cayenne, Tiger Lily, Indian Paintbrush
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences help the Aries or Martian type to slow down, to be more patient, considerate and sensitive towards others. They temper excessive egocentricity, aggression and selfishness, and assist us to manifest our potential by better enabling us to convert our ideas into action.
  TAURUS - VENUS - 2ND HOUSE
The Manifesting Self ~ Building Physical Security  
FLOWER REMEDIES: Wild Rose, Chestnut Bud, Chicory, Iris, Tansy, Corn, Nasturtium, Gentian.
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences help the Taurean type to break through fixed attitudes and behaviour patterns. They encourage the apathetic and lethargic to get moving again. They temper the tendency toward possessiveness and 'holding on', and enhance our creativity and receptivity towards colour and nature.
 
  GEMINI - MERCURY - 3RD HOUSE
The Thinking Self ~ Networking with Others  
FLOWER REMEDIES: White Chestnut, Cerato, Hornbeam, Mimulus, Morning Glory, Shasta Daisy, Lavender Blackberry.
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences calm the ceaseless inner and outer chatter of the busy Geminian or Mercurial mind. They help us to think and communicate in a more holistic way. They balance an over-active nervous system, and are helpful for worry, anxiety, nervous exhaustion, fear, restlessness and hyperactivity.
 
  CANCER - THE MOON - 4TH HOUSE
The Feeling Self ~ Nurturing an Inner Sense of Belonging  
FLOWER REMEDIES: Chicory, Honeysuckle, Centaury, Red Chestnut, Chamomile,  Pink Yarrow, Pomegranate, Aspen, Clematis.
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences bring emotional calm to the Cancerian or Lunar type. They are strengthening and nurturing for the highly sensitive and emotionally needy person, and assist those who are over-protective and possessive of loved ones. They help us to let go of the past and move forward.
 
  LEO - THE SUN - 5TH HOUSE
The Creative Self ~ Projecting our Power  
FLOWER REMEDIES: Vine, Borage, Sunflower, Nasturtium, Dandelion, Vervain, Squash, Zinnia, Iris.
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences help the Leonine type to express leadership qualities in a positive way. They temper the tendency to dominate, to be inflexible, intolerant and egocentric, while enhancing the warmth and creativity of the sign. They assist us to open our hearts and be ourselves.
 
  VIRGO - MERCURY - 6TH HOUSE
The Healing Self ~ Towards Self-improvement & Wholeness  
FLOWER REMEDIES: Beech, Crab Apple, Pine, Dill, Corn, Self-Heal, Zinnia, White Yarrow Centaury, Jasmine.
EMOTIONAL HEALING: These essences help the Virgoan type to lighten up, to be less critical and judgmental of oneself and others. They help us to accept ourselves and to contact our own inner healing resources. They enable us to feel closer to the Earth and to better assimilate the experiences of life.
 
 

While I have mentioned for each zodiac sign a kind of archetypal or 'type' remedy, you may also find other appropriate remedies. In creating these correlations, I have drawn on a variety of sources, including Dr. Bach's work, the Flower Essence Repertory, Peter Damien's The Twelve Healers, and Donna Cunningham's astrological writings about the remedies.
